Overview
Version Locker gives you precise control over how plugin updates are handled in WordPress.
It allows you to lock selected plugins to their current version, hiding update notifications and blocking both automatic and manual updates. This helps prevent accidental updates that could break customized functionality, client sites, or production environments.
The plugin works entirely through standard WordPress hooks and filters. It does not modify plugin files or alter plugin code.
This is especially useful for agencies, developers, and site owners who want predictable and stable WordPress installations.
